that is really out of order from those stupid fans what a disgrace. how embarrasing also for all the proper fans in the premier league doesn't give a good impression.

on another note wow bayern didn't score I was expecting them to win. and chelsea were so lucky, they only had one shot on goal while psg had about 8-9 Courtois saved them.

It isn't just the Chavs problem but their so called fans have been guilty of such behaviour in the past.

Same here, but I'm guessing the author believes we already know that.

Was there any truth the Chelsea Smilers myth? When I was about 12 (1990) the story was that they drive around in a blue van and jumped people, inflicting the "Chelsea smile" on them. I remember police presence outside of schools and assumed there was at least some truth to it...

So it's back to the UEFA Cup this week. I wonder if the surge of good form that Liverpool and Spurs have experienced in the league since the break from playing on Thursday and Sunday will now take a nosedive to the regular poor results they were getting on Sundays before Christmas.

Losing at home to West Ham on Sunday is just the sort of result I'd expect from a resurgent Spurs now we're back to the midweek UEFA Cup fixtures. Of course I am praying and have my fingers and toes crossed it doesn't happen but it would be typical Tottenham to ruin all that good work we've enjoyed over the past couple of months with a crap result at the weekend.


And that's assuming we beat Fiorentina tonight. And we need to get a very good result against Fiorentina because the second leg is three days before our Cup final against Chelski in the League Cup final. So it would be nice if we could rest a few players for that second leg so we can confidently play our strongest team for the final.

I've to say. That must have been an amazing match to have attended. You'll never forget that one and more than worth the price of the trip alone.


I'll never forget the night Gareth Bale tore Maicon a new one at White Hart Lane when Spurs beat Inter Milan 3-1. The atmosphere was electric that night.

      Chango - New local gem alert!

      But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?

      ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."

      You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
